Abstract: Self-regulation and recognizing emotions are two important skills many children learn easily during their preschool and early childhood years. These basic skills are built upon to include other important life skills such as cooperation, social skills, communication skills, negotiation, and critical thinking. What happens when these skills don’t come easily to some of our students? This paper explores strategies, including assistive technologies, that support communication, learning self-regulation, and the ability to recognize emotions in oneself and others.
